Looks like a neat facility, you coulld use Evergreen board and batten for the structure, painting it to represent metal siding. The greenery growing up the sides is crying out to be modelled as well.

The line was originally chartered as the Deland & St John's River RR a 3' line; unable to find what was built but it was taken over by the Atlantic Coast Line.

I found this which if you scroll down has some pictures which might be useful

As Ed suggested you might add a citrus packing house, again this might be useful though it refers to earlier peiod so might not work with the plastic unloading facility

Look forward to seeing how your layout progresses
